cremation process

They are stripped naked and shaved of all hair, then they bake them in an oven until they turm to ashes.

Recently my mother passed away. The body was taken in a wooden stretcher. According to the Hindu rites, the elder son of the deceased has to carry a pot in which they put the fire. The priests chant from sacred books. After the formalities, the body is taken and placed on a track and it is pulled by a mechanical device into the burner.
As a custom, a piece of gold is left with the body along with closes on. As a sentiment, the deceased favourite cloth like wollen shawl, is also kept.
Next day, if one wishes to have the bones and ashes of the deceased, one can collect it. People immerse these in a river an indication that the soul shall rest in peace.

Someone told me that when you are cremated...the family never knows if those are your ashes or not! So they just scoop up whatever burned and give it to the family! I think the only person that really knows the truth is the person that puts you in there and takes you out!

here is a web sight that explains about the process of cremation. hope this helps you http://www.beckerritter.com/advice_faq.html

When my dad was cremateed the funeral guy tried to get my step mother into buying a real coffin to place him in during the cremation! Kind of dumb huh? Not to mention expensive since it was gonna be burned up. So he was placed in a thick card board box which was placed in the burning chamber. I dont know bout the shaving of the hair and all that.

From what I have seen on shows and what I have been told. The person's body can be placed into a coffin or box I guess you can call it. Then placed inside a burner that get's to a certain temp. which reduces the person to ashes. My husband's grandmother and grandfather were both creamated. I know for for a fact that his grandmother was cremated in her favorite outfit. As my mother in law put, it wasn't a dress or a skirt or completely white. They can't just throw a body into a fire. The coffin is placed on a belt that slowly enters the chamber, then they close the door. This is what I want done, after I die.

the url for the explaination does not say if clothes are left on or not but I believe that clothes are left on for when we had hubby cremated we had to take off his belt and bolo tie for they told us that the metal wasnt good to be left on the body.
Also heard one fellow was cremated with his birthday presents he had just got before he passed away
